AMR WARDA

Although his father is a basketball legend in Egypt, Amr Warda opted for football at a young age. Beginning his career at Al Ahly, he moved to Alexandria side Al Ittihad before packing his bags for Greece, where he has represented Panetolikos and PAOK.

An attacking midfielder, Warda played just 27 minutes of the qualifiers for the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™, but he has enjoyed more time on the pitch as a substitute in recent matches. Warda was called from the bench in the March friendlies against Portugal and Greece. Thanks to his fine technique and physical prowess, Warda is capable of linking up Egypt's attack and defence.
